PATCO Construction describes itself on its website as a Southern Maine general contractor that has been in business since 1985. A 2025 customer said the company demolished an old camp and built a lake house for them, a summer house they were 1,800 miles away from during construction. That 2025 customer said Christian Doyon kept them in the loop during site prep, and that the project manager kept in close contact with calls and pictures posted to the Buildertrend website. The same 2025 customer wrote that the company was very responsive on a few minor warranty items after they took possession. A 2025 customer said the staff took them through the showroom and explained the process. In a 2023 review, a customer partway through building a home said Patco found solutions every step of the way. A 2024 customer said the company got top dollar for low-quality work and called the communication horrible. In a 2026 review, a customer described three months of changing terms on a commercial lease and said the unit offered was not the fully updated one that had been advertised.
These people jerked me around for 3 months straight on a commercial lease. They kept changing their mind and increasing terms. Then they tried to get me to rent a run down, ghetto unit that was a safety hazard. Mind you they advertised a fully updated unit but when you inquired about it, they said it’s not for rent but we have this dump unit we are renting. I would stay away from these people, they have no idea how to do business. They will waste your time and jerk your around.
If I could give zero stars, I would. Thanks for nothing
Pathetic excuse for a business. Horrible experience, there are so many better well known businesses local to deal with. Run away from this company.
My wife and I were looking for a builder to demolish an old camp and build us a house. Several builders were either way over budge or deemed lake front property too much of a hassle for them to take the project on. We found Patco and Christian Doyon and we are very glad we did. Patco has extensive experience building on lake front lots. They have a wide selection of house plans and are very willing to modify them to meet your needs. We worked with them to take an existing plan and fit it perfectly to our lot and worked with us on the upgrades that would fit our budget. Since this would be a summer house we were 1,800 miles away during construction. Site prep took a lot of Patco's time to get done and Christian paid attention to every step keeping us in the loop. Once the demolition was done and permits in place the project manager kept in close contact with us every step of the way, calls and pictures posted to the Buildertrend website. Its an excellent way to monitor progress of the build. Patco was very diligent in reaching out with any questions they needed answers on or with items they wanted us to be aware of. They were always available for questions and got us answers promptly. We took possession of the house in January '25 and have had only a few minor warranty items, which they have been very responsive in addressing. If we were to build another house in Maine we would 100% go to Patco for the job. But since our new lake house is so great now I doubt we will ever need to build again. If you are looking for a builder, you should reach out to Patco. Best build experience we have ever had. Thank you Patco!
I have to say that they were very informative and took their time in helping us. Very thorough and explain their process. Took us through the showroom. It was a good experience.
